Very well done way to made their critic on USA x Iraq war. Its about how the government deliberate use the word LIBERATION to their agressive tatics against Iraq. It was no fucking Iraq liberation,but opressive military action to run the country and get the control of OIL reserves. Like D.O.A. sung "War!What it is good for.ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING!!!" tHIS IS Anti FLAG Iraq liberation song

Ok, so i'm quoting song lyrics, but those two lines sum up this song in a nutshell. They're meant to be freeing the iraqu people, but it's kinda hard when they use such ridiculuous aggressive techniques!

I like the use of sarcasm in this song. Its very well written.

Basically points out the idiocy of killing people to make them free. Especially when you are replacing a dictatorship with another dictatorship with a little voting show to fool the people.

war is good.. for the government to gain power, sucking iraq of it's oil, using humans as tributes for money, being a egotistical motherf*cker, bombing people. corse, its really more like war is only for... now, i will admit that SOME wars have helped people gain freedom, BUT THIS war and others are not justified. my friends dad was in the navy(?) or something, anyway he was only supose to fight to PROTECT the usa not ivade, if he had not gone, he would have got aressted. he said that he saw people deformed and ding from simplethings the us could prvide, such as water poisoning, food sortage, and lack of shelter. I am very greatful he wasnt killed there. now i have some prove of what is happening in iraq. I think god wants to just go to sleep for the next 100 years, so he/she can not hit their head on a brick wall for the ignorance of our government

the singer David Rovics has a song with the same title. At first I thought it was a cover but listening to both songs, they're completely different, so I guess it's just a coincidence.

And I love the use of sarcasm in this song. It's extremely well written.
